Home cooking served up a five game win streak, but we all wondered if the Flames could continue to crawl back into the playoff conversation when they set out on this difficult road trip.
They managed to keep things going against the Predators in Nashville the other night, but the Dallas Stars were an even bigger challenge. The West's scariest offense and top team saw Calgary storm back from a three goal deficit the last time these two teams met, so you can be sure they had this date circled on their calendar.
Unfortunately for them, the Flames managed to orchestrate a different kind of upset tonight.
